Bloody Journey: Those Years in Northeast China

Bloody Journey: Those Years in the Northeast - Chapter 377 The Sun Also Rises

It was still midsummer, and a gust of evening wind blew by, and the sound of "哗——哗——" came from the road, which added a bit of liveliness to the quiet night in midsummer. The sound was like the whisper of the sea tide, It is also like the call of the pines, but in fact it is the thousands of big-leaf poplars on both sides of the road that make the noise.

These big-leaved poplar trees were planted by Yao Zhijiang when he was the mayor of Qingshan District in Hongqi City more than [-] years ago. Today, the small poplar trees that were as thick as bowl mouths have grown to more than one foot thick.The poplar trees with luxuriant branches sang softly in the summer evening wind, and two slender figures, a man and a woman, wandered in the mottled shade of the trees under the street lamps.

"Xiaodi, you mean your father has been at home with you all day, discussing our affairs?" Shen Tianlong asked

"En!" Yao Xiaodi gently held Shen Tianlong's arm, and gave a soft nostril, as a promise.

Although Yao Xiaodi had reached a temporary reconciliation with his father, the scene of his father crying in pain was deeply imprinted in Yao Xiaodi's mind.Yao Zhijiang is the secretary of the municipal party committee and the local emperor of the entire Hongqi City, but this time when facing his own children, he seemed so helpless!

When Yao Zhijiang used fierce measures to deal with Yao Xiaodi, he would always suffer strong counterattacks from Yao Xiaodi, but when he became weak and even cried, Yao Xiaodi felt extremely distressed in his heart.

Men seldom cry, but it is precisely because of this that men's tears are often more touching than women's tears, especially the tears of men like Yao Zhijiang.

Because of her father's tears, Yao Xiaodi was not in a good mood, she just quietly took Shen Tianlong's arm, resting her head on Shen Tianlong's shoulder, almost half of Yao Xiaodi's body weight was on Shen Tianlong's body.She is also a little tired, and she doesn't want to say anything now.

Yao Xiaodi is a strong girl, but when she is with Shen Tianlong, she can become very soft, because she knows that she doesn't have to bear so much, and she believes that although the man next to her is not mature yet, he will grow up sooner or later For a man as stalwart as a mountain, to protect himself from the wind and rain.

Taking a step back, even if Shen Tianlong disappears from everyone in the future, he will be a tough guy with strong bones, and he will be able to support his wife and children.Yao Xiaodi's request is not high, in Yao Xiaodi's heart, she is also ready to live an ordinary life with Shen Tianlong.As this girl with a beautiful heart and a heart once said in a letter to Shen Tianlong, "She can live in fine clothes and fine food, and she can also live in firewood, rice, oil, and salt."

Yao Xiaodi said it, and she did it.Such a woman is simply an angel bestowed by heaven on earth, and the man who falls in love with such a girl is undoubtedly the luckiest man in the world.

Shen Tianlong also felt that he was very lucky. It should have been a good time for the two of them to murmur, you and me on this midsummer night.But what Shen Tianlong is most concerned about right now is another matter.

"Xiaodi, are you saying that your father stayed at home all day without communicating with anyone or calling?" Shen Tianlong was still asking about Yao Zhijiang regardless of his romance with Yao Xiaodi.

Seeing Shen Tianlong's serious question, Yao Xiaodi tilted his head and thought for a while before answering: "Secretary Gao called home at ten o'clock in the morning, but at that time my father and I were arguing fiercely, and he asked Secretary Gao, don't look for him if you have nothing important to do."

"..."

Yao Xiaodi's words made Shen Tianlong fall into deep thought. What he is most worried about now is not Yao Zhijiang's objection to his relationship with Yao Xiaodi, but the matter of the National Security Bureau.

Tomorrow, people from the National Security Bureau and the Commission for Discipline Inspection will come to talk to Yao Zhijiang, but Yao Zhijiang has been arguing with his daughter all day at home. What is the rhythm of this?Why is Yao Zhijiang not in a hurry?

And judging from the feedback, Shen Tianlong already understood that the bureau was set up by the mayor Lu Zhendong. The National Security Bureau was dispatched.Lu Zhendong made it clear that he wanted to punish Yao Zhijiang to death, but why didn't Yao Zhijiang respond at all?

Could it be that Yao Zhijiang knew he was invincible and was already ready to subdue him?Or is it because Yao Zhijiang has a clear conscience and is confident that he can survive this catastrophe?

In short, the National Security Bureau came to the door, but Yao Zhijiang trained his daughter at home for a day. This situation is very abnormal, and Shen Tianlong is extremely puzzled.

Today, Shen Tianlong has learned more about Yao Xiaodi's family. Although Yao's family is a top family in Hongqi City, even Yao Xiaodi's uncle and uncle are provincial and ministerial cadres, and Mr. Yao is in the Beijing also has good connections.

But to put it bluntly, there are still many families like the Yao family in China, and Yao Xiaodi's family can only be regarded as a vassal at best. After all, their family is not a real wealthy family, and it is far from the background of a family in the capital. .

Even for those real wealthy families, if they are convicted by the National Security Bureau, they will be destroyed. For a family like Yao Xiaodi, if there is a traitor with foreign connections in their family, I am afraid that the entire family will be destroyed. The Yao family will be wiped out in an instant.

Who can be strong enough to compete with the entire state apparatus?Is there anyone who bears the charge of treason and still thrives?No, from ancient times to the present, from abroad to domestic, there has never been such a precedent!

"Xiaodi, let me tell you something!" Shen Tianlong thought for a long time, and decided to tell Yao Xiaodi about it. "It is said that people from the National Security Bureau and the Commission for Discipline Inspection will talk to your father tomorrow. Do you know about this?"

After asking, Shen Tianlong glanced at Yao Xiaodi inadvertently, and he secretly observed Yao Xiaodi's reaction.

Wang Chao's hand and Shen Tianlong's eyes are now the two major weapons used by the Public Security Bureau to solve the case.And Wang Chao's hand means that when Wang Chao interrogated the prisoners, all kinds of cruel methods emerged one after another, and often the most brutal desperadoes couldn't bear Wang Chao's torture and confessed obediently.

As for Shen Tianlong's eyes, it means that Shen Tianlong's eyes are very poisonous, so poisonous that Shen Tianlong can almost tell the suspect that he is not lying.Maybe this matter is exaggerated, but for Shen Tianlong, it is the result of his long-term training.

He has been a scout for four years, and the prisoners of war have been interrogated for many years. After joining the work, Shen Tianlong has studied many books on criminal psychology and micro-reactions of the human body in the past few years, and then applied these contents in the book. For the prisoner, it can be said that Shen Tianlong has reached the expert level in judging lying.

For example, Shen Tianlong knows that the expression of surprise is only fleeting. If it lasts longer than one second, the other party must be pretending. Shen Tianlong also knows that if a person lies, no matter how good his psychological quality is, he will have physical symptoms. The reflection of wanting to escape, although the surface of the person is still very stable at this time, but at this time the blood of the human body will flow back from the limbs to the legs, which will cause the body surface temperature of the hands to drop slightly.

This drop in temperature can be said to be minimal, but if you have carefully studied this aspect and have a lot of practical experience, you can still distinguish the subtle difference from it.

Shen Tianlong actually trusted Yao Xiaodi in his heart. He believed that Yao Xiaodi would never deceive himself under any circumstances, but the professional habits developed from interrogating prisoners of war or prisoners over the years still made Shen Tianlong inadvertently judge Yao Xiaodi.

When it was said that the National Security Bureau was looking for Yao Zhijiang, Shen Tianlong had been secretly observing Yao Xiaodi's physical reactions.

"National Security Bureau?" Hearing Shen Tianlong's question, Yao Xiaodi's eyes were full of surprise, but there was no panic on his face.

"Yes, it's the National Security Bureau!" Shen Tianlong replied in a deep voice, seeing the change in Yao Xiaodi's face, Shen Tianlong let go of his hanging heart, because although Yao Xiaodi was surprised, she didn't panic.And she didn't panic, which meant that Yao Xiaodi had nothing to do with the National Security Bureau.

"The National Security Bureau is looking for your father. Li Guodong knew about it, and even Song Shilun knew about it, but your father never mentioned it to you. What do you think will happen?" Shen Tianlong asked Yao Xiaodi.

After Yao Xiaodi learned about this from Shen Tianlong, he also fell into long-term thinking.Yao Xiaodi is not an ignorant girl. She grew up in a family of officials. Yao Xiaodi's vision is far wider than that of ordinary girls. How could she not understand the strength of the national security system?

But no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't figure out why the National Security Bureau would find her father.The Yao family originates from Mr. Yao, and Mr. Yao is an old revolutionary with outstanding achievements. This old revolutionary has always been popular and expert in the education of his children.

Under the influence of my ears and eyes, although members of the Yao family are in the officialdom, sometimes they may do some unspeakable things for one reason or another, but no matter what, none of these people will harm this country.

Mr. Yao won't, Yao Xiaodi's uncles and aunts won't, and Yao Zhijiang won't!Knowing the son is more like the father, knowing the father is more like the son, Yao Xiaodi has been Yao Zhijiang's personal padded jacket since she was a child, she will never believe that her father will be a traitor who betrayed the country!

But what was obviously impossible has become possible, and it is a fact that the National Security Bureau will meet with his father tomorrow. Yao Xiaodi has a little worry in his heart, but more doubts.

"There's no reason. Someone in our family is abroad. My brother, my cousin, and my cousin are all abroad. But after my cousin and my cousin went abroad, my grandpa wouldn't let me discuss work with my uncle. My cousin and the others listened in, let alone divulged state secrets to them."

"My grandfather is an old revolutionary. National issues are matters of principle. My grandfather will never compromise! And our family will never produce such a person, even my elder brother will definitely not do such a thing." Yao Xiaodi talked wildly. And talking, there is not much worry in the words.

"Hey, I hope it was a false alarm!" Shen Tianlong sighed

"What if it's true?" Yao Xiaodi blinked mischievously suddenly.

"Hehe, if it is true, then I will lead you to the end of the world!" Shen Tianlong said

"What if someone wants to arrest me and go back to subdue the law?" Immediately afterwards, Yao Xiaodi asked again.

"..."

Yao Xiaodi's words made Shen Tianlong hesitate for a long time, and after a full minute, Shen Tianlong took a deep breath, and said in a very central voice, "Xiaodi, even if you are a foreign spy, just promise me that you will not As a spy, I will still protect you. Whoever dares to catch you, I will fight with my life!"

Shen Tianlong's voice was not loud, and there was a touch of sadness in his voice, as if, as if Yao Xiaodi had really done something to harm this country, and Shen Tianlong had been at war with heaven and man for a long time before he decided to stand Yao Xiaodi's side.

Although Shen Tianlong's statement was hesitant, Yao Xiaodi's face was still very happy. In Yao Xiaodi's heart, Shen Tianlong's words were undoubtedly saying, "If you are going to kill people, I will set fire to them. If you go to fight, then I will Just sharpen the knife!"

For himself, this man who once fought to the death to protect this country in the hail of bullets could even compromise the country's righteousness, even though he hesitated.

One sand, one world, one tree, one bodhi.Now, Yao Xiaodi is Shen Tianlong's whole world.For himself, Shen Tianlong was able to betray the whole world, what else could Yao Xiaodi be dissatisfied with?

While Shen Tianlong was discussing with Yao Xiaodi about the National Security Bureau, Yao Zhijiang was sitting on the sofa at home, smoking one cigarette after another.

Yao Zhijiang does not usually smoke, and only when he is extremely upset, he will choose this way of harming his health to ease his mood.

Yao Zhijiang doesn't lose his temper easily, but from his attitude towards his children, we can know that Yao Zhijiang is an extremely stubborn person in nature.

If it was a crime committed by me or my son, then I can admit it and bear it, but for the crimes I have not committed, even if the emperor came, I would have to explain it to you!

What's more, this is an event that is enough to wipe out the entire Yao family in an instant!At this critical moment, Yao Zhijiang did not discuss with Mr. Yao or anyone in his family. He chose to bear it silently by himself. At this moment, he handed himself over to the party and the country.

Yao Zhijiang believed that the National Security Bureau would never be such a bastard, and he also didn't believe that Lu Zhendong's power was enough to control the National Security Bureau.Taking a step back, if there is a situation where there is really a situation where there is no reason to blame, then the entire Yao family will not be able to compete with the terrifying agency of the National Security Bureau!

Extending the head is also a knife, retracting the head is also a knife, anyway, Yao Zhijiang is going all out this time!

When Yao Xiaodi returned home, the rice bowl on the coffee table at home, which was temporarily used as an ashtray, was already full of cigarette butts.

The father and daughter didn't panic, nor did they panic, they just analyzed this strange thing over and over again, and Yao Xiaodi even called Yao Xiaodong from abroad again.

All the signs indicated that the Yao family would never do anything that would endanger the country. After much deliberation, Yao Zhijiang and Yao Xiaodi, the father and daughter, only came to the conclusion that "the clean will be clean, and the turbid will be turbid."

The sun also rises is the name of a movie and a novel written by Hemingway, but the ultimate source of this sentence comes from the Bible.

"One generation comes, one generation goes, the earth lasts forever, the sun rises, the sun sets, and the sun rises as usual."

Regardless of whether Yao Zhijiang is worried or helpless about tomorrow's affairs, when the sun rises, tomorrow will come as promised!
